"John Watson?" Sherlock asked the receptionist

"I'm sorry, he's in the operation at the moment, please wait"

The three men sat in the waiting room together, after three hours, two police men walked in

"Sherlock Holmes?" One asked

"Yes?"

"We need to take you to the station" he answered

"Why?" Stepped up Mycroft

"He is being arrested under suspicion of attempted murder" the other added

"Of who?"

"John Watson"

The three men stared

"Why am I suspected of this?" Sherlock asked standing up

"We asked John"

"What did you ask exactly?"

"Who shot you? We tried to keep it simple, due to trauma"

"All he said was Sherlock, but the nurse informed us a Sherlock Holmes was here"

Sherlock stepped towards the officer

"I'll say this as politely as I can, the man who shot John, is dead, his name was James Moriarty, his accomplice, Sebastian Moran, is also dead, they can be found at the abandoned warehouse not far from here, I was there when this happened so was these two"

Sherlock gestured to Greg and Mycroft

"And you are?" Asked the police officer

"Detective Inspector, Greg Lestrade" Greg grinned

"I'm Mycroft Holmes, also if you like you job, don't arrest my brother unless you have an actual case" Mycroft smiled

The police officers grunted before leaving.

"Visitors for John Watson?"

They turned to see a doctor standing there and nodded

"I'm sorry, he's made it through the operation, but he might not make to tomorrow, I'm sorry"

"Can we see him?" Whispered Sherlock

"Yeah, room two hundred and twenty one"

The three men laughed causing the doctor to stare as they passed.
